NEWS: First to do AI chatbots in Virt-A-Mate (Patreon)

I've seen a few people say that Alive was the first to deliver on AI chatbots for virtamate. That's not true so I wanted to publicly set the record straight and give proper credits where it's due.

IMPOSTER

The first plugin to deliver on AI chatbot functionality in VAM was Imposter by TwinTwin. At least to my knowledge, please correct me if I'm wrong and there was someone else even before him. But it was likely him, it was in the very early days of the AI madness. He posted his release in February 2023. He wanted to do a lot of cool stuff and was very skilled but he received no support for his project unfortunately. The interface looked very nice, in lots of way better than I managed with Alive even after a lot more time. And he did that in a short amount of time. I can't imagine what we would have had by now if people supported his project. I think he received only like $50 (without taxes).

I added AI to Alive much later, in May, so he did it definitely way before me. That is for the public creators anyway. There are likely quite a few other people that did it around the same time or earlier but for personal use and didn't share it.
